In Mosul, a suicide car bomber blew himself up near a U.S. military patrol, but there were no reports of any injuries, apart from the bomber.

HEADLINE....."SUICIDE BOMBER ATTACKS, ONE DEAD."

Man at this rate, there are not going to be any more virgins left!

There'll be plenty left. It's just that the pickings get a bit restricted, as you can see below...

". . . apart from the bomber."

Shouldn't they have said "parts from the bomber"?

Also, maybe this is one of the suicide bombers that Kofi wants to throw the book at.

Unasked Question...

How could a camp and force as large as at least 80+ lunatics, exist unmolested for this long?

Potential Answer...

It was known, and someone was smart enough to wait until the target got rich enough to strike and destroy.

Otherwise, someone was asleep at the switch..

I second that motion and raise the punishment to "listening to an Al Gore speech."

Once the Neighborhood Police start paying attention, there will be more progress.

An unasked, but very appropriate question.

By the way, there's a little more detail at the counterterrism blog with a link to some photos from one of the camps:

From a textbook at the captured training facility:

Chapter 6 - Car Bombing
Take care to follow these specific steps:

1) don suicide belt
2) start car
3) detonate belt
4) park next to target

Terrorist: But Tikrit is peaceful! We have no weapons, you can't possibly...

ING General: [impatiently] Would you prefer another target, a military target? Then name the ghetto! I grow tired of asking this so it'll be the last time: Where is the rebel base?

Terrorist: Mosul. They're in Mosul.

ING General: There. See, General Abizaid , he can be reasonable. Continue with the operation. You may fire when ready.

Terrorist: What?

ING General: You're far too trusting. Mosul is too remote to make an effective demonstration - but don't worry; we'll deal with your rebel friends soon enough.
